TBAI030 - Luoshuidong Baicha 2021

Product detailed description

Aged Yunnan white tea from from Luoshuidong village (落水洞村) at Yiwu Tea Mountain (易武). The tea was harvested in Spring 2021 and compressed in Summer 2025. The tea leaves come from young, mature and ancient tea trees (huncai 混采), harvested across Luoshuidong tea gardens at the elevation around 1300 m.a.s.l. The cover has minimalistic teal color with Chinese characters refering to the traditional method of production and ancient tea trees.

The tea was generously provided by Hu Rui, tea collector born in Menga township (勐阿镇) in Menghai county (勐海县). Hu comes from Han tribe (汉族) and her family owns a small tea house in Jinghong city (景洪市) since 2016. As a tea collector, she focuses on various teas across whole Yunnan Province, particularly from Xishuangbanna. During our work trip to Xishuangbanna in Autumn 2025,  we spend a lot of time by comparing various aged teas from less-known tea villages in both Menghai and Mengla.
